Our Take
The Eufy SoloCam S340 is a dual-lens wireless security camera that sits in Eufy's premium outdoor range—think of it as the middle ground between their budget models and their top-tier setups. It's designed for homeowners who want proper surveillance coverage without needing a complicated hub system or monthly cloud subscriptions. If you're after something that'll actually catch detail of a face or a car number plate from across your garden, rather than just spotting movement, this is worth a look.
What makes this camera stand out is the dual-lens setup: you get a standard wide-angle lens for overall scene coverage, plus a telephoto lens that zooms in without losing clarity. The 2K resolution (2560 × 1920) means you're capturing genuinely useful detail, and the battery will run you several months between charges depending on activity levels—we're talking 4-6 months in typical UK conditions with moderate motion detection. It's got solid night vision with infrared, and the weatherproofing is rated IP67, so it'll handle rain, frost, and the general British garden conditions without flinching. Local storage via microSD card is included in the box, so your footage stays on the camera itself rather than being shipped to the cloud.
Compared to alternatives like the Reolink RLC-510A or Logitech Circle View, the S340 occupies an interesting middle space—it's sharper than basic budget cameras but less fiddly than some pro-grade setups. One thing UK buyers should check: the field of view is fairly wide on the main sensor, so if you're mounting it in a corner, test the positioning first. The camera arrives with the battery already installed, a decent wall mount, and weatherproof cables for power if you go that route. Make sure your WiFi reaches the mounting spot—it does support 2.4GHz and 5GHz, which helps, but a weak signal will cause reconnection issues.
